Patient Reviews
Feb 04, 2024
The entire team are so professional . From the time I filled out a request for an appointment through the consult and surgery everyone did their job so well and seemed focused on me the patient. I am a retired patient quality and safety professional in pediatrics. So I was extremely pleased to find Dr. Melendez and this team. They are doing it all well. Happy to have the choice to use this group. Do your research but also trust in the people who show you they love what they do and who they work for. It matters how the whole team works and how they feel valued in the work place. Dr. Melendez walks the walk with his team approach and his charity work. The mission matters to me. This stands out for me a man that excels and lifts others on the way. It was such a good experience and I felt I was heard and my choice was so great. I was able to see and do some pretty fine close up work the day after surgery, as an artist I was very apprehensive my color sense may be different -I’m so happy.
